ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

“Check & Mate” by Ali Hazelwood follows Mallory Greenleaf, a former chess prodigy who left the competitive world to focus on family and work. After an unexpected victory against a top chess player, Mallory is drawn back into the game, facing internal conflict as she navigates her passion for chess, family responsibilities, and growing public attention. The story explores themes of personal growth, resilience, and the balancing act between ambition and responsibility. As Mallory reconnects with her love for chess, she learns to confront her fears, redefine success, and navigate the complexities of her relationships and personal life.
